    Hi,

    Thanks for such a simple theme! Keep up the good work πŸ˜€

    Just a couple of questions…

    I’ve been playing around with it and I’m trying to make a simple thumbnail gallery using your wonderful theme. I’ve managed to remove the “search” box as well as any additional information that was superfluous to the website. Now I’ve ended up with this:

    http://j.unospace.net/?p=23

    How do I change the number of columns so it shows 4 thumbnails in a row instead of three?

    And, how do I remove the navigation controls and image name within the lightbox apart from the “X” to close it. Oh and how do you remove the “hover” text/caption when the cursor is hovering over the thumbnail.

    Your help would be greatly appreciated!

    Sorted the column thing, changed the content width to 940px, got rid of the sidebar in the .php and changed columns from 3 to 4 in style.css! I also fiddled around with the colourbox.css so it’s all gravy.

    Hmm after playing around, if you flick between:

    http://j.unospace.net/ or http://j.unospace.net/2/ (only 2 rows of images)

    with

    http://j.unospace.net/1/
    (which has 4 rows of images)

    There’s a shift in the image column and the title to the left, is there anyway to resolve this? I notice this happen even with the default them unedited.

    rirawin,

    I love the way your site looks with four columns. I’m trying to set up my website ([url=http://gregaitkenheadphotography.com]gregaitkenheadphotography.com[/url]) the same way. Got rid of the sidebar, then checked your site out with Firebug to see how things worked in html, but I can’t figure out what to change in the theme’s style.css.

    Also, if you don’t mind me asking, where (and why) do you change the content width to 940px? Thanks.

    Hi noflashlight,

    Sorry I made a slight error in my post. I actually changed

    [code]<div class=”gallery post-gallery gallery-columns-4″>[/code]

    Under functions.php

    In the style.css I changed the content width to 940px to allow for 4 images to be shown on one row. If I didn’t change this it would still show 3 columns, instead of 4. Hope that helps.

    Just a bump on my previous query, is there anyway to fix the alignment shift as highlighted flicking through the following pages:

    http://j.unospace.net/1/

    http://j.unospace.net/2/

    The image column and title shifts to the left slightly when there are 4 row of images.

    I believe it’s something to do with the footer and margins? Or am I wrong? I should probably create a new thread as the title is a bit misleading !

    This is awesome information, thanks! Is there a way to resize/ select what’s seen in the thumbnails for a gallery post? Changing the dimensions in the media library is not working for me.

    Yeah…looks like all of you figured out how to get 4 colums, but i’m still stuck with 3. I can’t get it to 4 columns after changing the code listed above.

    I was able to change the amount of columns but for some reason my page width is not updating. I have these exact parameters in my css.style:

    #container {
    width:940px;
    margin:0 auto;
    margin-bottom:20px;
    border-bottom:#CCC 1px solid;
    }

    }

    #content {
    float:left;
    width:940px;
    margin:0;
    margin-right:20px;

    Can you please help me understand why the page is not updating? I verified in source code that the page is still picking the 700px. Why wouldn’t it update?

    Have managed to delete the sidebar in php, and have carried out the changes as below from “rirawin”, but I like others still appear to still have 3 columns not four – please see http://shutterbuglane.com/?p=90. Any comments or help would be appreciated.
    Thanks ………….

    Has anyone managed to come up with a way to rearrange thumbnails in galleries, so you can have them in any order? As a portfolio theme for photography it’s a necessary function but I’ve been Googling for a couple of days and found no solutions.

    Thanks.

    And for those who may still be wanting to do four columns and not knowing how, I followed this tutorial and it was easy to do.
